燃烧生命的小胖妞
The hanging church is built in ancient Cairo's Babylonian southwestern gate above Egypt's oldest Christian church, the church itself hanging in the aisle. It is a holy place for Egyptian Christianity because Mary, the Virgin Mary who was carrying Jesus, was here 1800 years ago and was later transferred to Jerusalem to give birth to Jesus. The church is small but beautiful, and has preserved many relics of the saints, but only here can be seen, because it cannot be photographed.

The church is much more magnificent than I thought. Before entering the church, people had to pass through a short tunnel, after which visitors could see many seats arranged in parallel from the outer hole to the inner side. In short, the view of the church was fascinating and it was really worth a visit. However, the location of the church is not easy to reach. The church is in Nasir City, and although I got there, I still couldn't find the specific location of the church. A driver called Duke asked two or three people there so he could drive me to the nearby area and let me go alone - a sight that people who first came to Cairo might overlook.

One of the most beautiful ancient synagogues in the world. Understand the situation of Judaism in Egypt. No longer open for prayer or worship. Just as a tourist attraction. Well restored architecture. But not enough information on history and building functions. Pity: No photos allowed!

Coptic is a branch of Christianity, and there are many believers in Cairo. The churches seen in Cairo are basically Coptic churches, and if you see girls without headscarves on the streets, most of them are Coptic, except for the Islamists who embrace new ideas. The Cairo Special Zone is a relatively concentrated area of the Coptic community. It is a representative attraction of the Coptic Christian Museum. The museum has a complete collection of Coptic artworks from the world. The exhibits have a large number of wooden objects, icons, manuscripts and textiles. A good place to learn about Coptic culture.

The church is more than 1600 years old and is the oldest Coptic Orthodox church in Cairo. The walls of the entire church are made of many boulders, which appear very simple. There is a very important legend under this church. It is an ancient church that Cairo people admire and worship very much. It is worth visiting.

The Church of Santa Barbara, a Byzantine building in the early 5th century, is located in the eastern part of the Babylonian ruins and is one of the most beautiful Coptic churches, named after Santa Barbara, and still contains the relics of Santa Barbara and the original exquisite wooden doors of the church. The gate is one of the most elegant artistic wonders, and its frame is carved from mulberry trees and made up of 45 panels.

环游星空的歌者高登
1. Located in the northeast of downtown Cairo, it can be reached by multiple bus and subway; 2. The church is the largest cathedral in Africa, and the exterior and interior are designed and built according to the highest Orthodox church standards; The Coptic Orthodox Church is an Egyptian-based Orthodox Church whose religious leader is called the “Grand Patriarch of Alexandria” and honored St. Mark as the first Grand Patriarch, and now St. Mark’s tomb is at the back of the church. 4.2016 On December 11, the church was attacked by IS, killing 24 people and injuring 49 people (tomorrow is the second anniversary of the anniversary), and the interior of the church is still under renovation and not fully open. If you want to visit, you need to go through layers of security checks and cross-examination. In theory, non-Christians are prohibited from entering.
